Bb
A house not a home was a picture satin painted
    Eb                     Bb
For sweet little sister and me

Our daddy would frown while mother was praying
                               F            Bb
His heart was so hardened that he would not believe
              Bb7       Eb             Bb
In anger he'd swear his voice cold and loud
Bb                                          F
His Sundays were spent out with the gamblin crowd
Bb                       Eb                Bb
I've never seen my daddy inside a house of God
                                 F              Bb
For Satin held his hand down the path of sin he trod

SOLO

Bb
Not long ago our circle was broken
     Eb                       Bb
When God called on mother one night
Bb
In a voice sweet and low her last words were spoken
                    F                  Bb
Asking our daddy to raise her children right
          Bb7          Eb          Bb
The angels rejoiced in heaven last night
Bb                                        F
I heard my daddy praying dear God make it right
Bb                              Eb           Bb
He was smiling and singing with tears in his eyes
Bb                               F         Bb
While mother with the angels rejoiced last night
                                 F    Eb   Bb
While mother with the angels rejoiced last night
